Sun, style and single-level living

This sunny, stylish, single-level residence was built by the owners nine years ago. They have created a calming coastal retreat, with a spacious and versatile floorplan that will suit buyers at all stages. Boasting all the benefits of a modern build, it offers three double bedrooms, two bathrooms, two living areas and an office.

The solid brick and weatherboard home has an impressive street presence and is located on a flat, freehold site. Its part of an established Millwater neighbourhood, just footsteps from the Orewa Estuary Path. This popular walking and cycleway loops around the Orewa estuary and explores the waters edge, parks and bush trails. A choice of motorway onramps makes life easy for commuters and excellent local schools, shops and beautiful beaches are close by.

Smart contemporary design has generated an incredibly easy living environment, with a very generous stud height enhancing the sense of space and illuminating the rooms with light and sun. Practical polished concrete floors are heated, which helps ensure the home is always warm and dry. The wide entry hall flows into the open-plan living, dining and classic, well-equipped kitchen space, where gallery-style walls are perfect for displaying feature artwork.

Two sets of sliding glass doors access the north-facing patio, which is protected by a handy Louvre Tec canopy for all-season alfresco entertaining. Flat lawns are framed with established, low-maintenance landscaping.

Back inside at the front of the home, double doors open into the separate lounge/ media room. There is also an office and internal access to the double garage from here. At the other end the accommodation wing can be closed off when required. Two bedrooms are serviced by the family bathroom with bath, while the master has a walk-in wardrobe, ensuite and garden access.

There is nothing to do here but unpack, relax and enjoy.
